More than 2000 free-range deer inhabit the park and you will see them graze on your way through the park. Be sure to visit The Hermitage hunting lodge and enjoy the view of the Sound to Sweden.
To enter the Jaegersborg Deer Park, you have to find one of the characteristic red gates. Klampenborg gate is the most used and is located close to Klampenborg Station.

In 2015, the Deer Park was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the par force landscape was once used for hunting by the Danish Royal Family. Today, you’ll still see how the park’s trails are linked in in star-shaped trail systems that once gave the hunters a better view of the dogs movements.
